“...and Europe risks going back to the bad old days of nation states and independent economies...”
Boy, is that a bad axiom. Nations exist for very good reasons, and the US took around a hundred years to gradually and painfully move from federalism (dominance of the states) to anti-federalism (strong central government), even going to war over it. Just to prove to ourselves that anti-federalism, while easier for the central government, isn’t better than federalism.
Europe should have learned their lesson a long time ago. With the formation of a unified Holy Roman Empire. As a unified central government it barely lasted a single generation, before devolving into at first a federation of kingdoms, then subdividing more and more, with less and less power for the central government until it became just an ignored, paperwork generating administrative body. It still lasted, at least on paper, about a thousand years, but nobody cared.
Yet the nations more or less survived.
